Children with severe motor impairment due to cerebral palsy have difficulties engaging in play, although they want to play games that typically developing children play. The barriers imposed by motor impairments against engaging in play can be addressed through the use of robots. We aim to identify how children, who have extensive experience of play, imagine what a robot is and what features would make a robot good to play with. Using a qualitative description design, 19 children from urban and rural settings participated in focus groups to draw and talk about the robots they would like to exist. The data were coded and analyzed using a summative approach to content analysis. The findings revealed that the children imagined that a good robot to play with is one that has an anthropomorphic appearance, is tough and strong, has controls, and that is able to move, grab, speak, and play popular children’s games. In particular, the girls imagined that robots should be able to express positive emotions towards children. Age, gender, culture, and the physical environment in which the children lived influenced what they expected to find in a robot for playing with and how they imagined child–robot interactions.

儿童对机器人玩耍的想象

因脑瘫而患有严重运动障碍的儿童在玩游戏时有困难,尽管他们想玩儿童通常会玩的游戏。运动障碍对参与游戏的障碍可以通过使用机器人来解决。我们的目标是确定具有丰富游戏经验的儿童如何想象机器人是什么以及哪些功能可以使机器人更好地玩耍。使用定性描述设计,来自城市和农村的 19 名儿童参加了焦点小组,以绘制和谈论他们希望存在的机器人。使用内容分析的总结性方法对数据进行编码和分析。调查结果显示,孩子们想象的一个好机器人是一个具有拟人化外观、坚韧强壮、有控制力、并且可以移动、抓取、说话和玩流行的儿童游戏。特别是,女孩们想象机器人应该能够向孩子们表达积极的情绪。年龄、性别、文化和孩子们生活的物理环境影响了他们期望在机器人中找到的东西,以及他们如何想象儿童与机器人的互动。
